Holly, please smack him before he gets to “balls”.
Nevermind. Les hasn’t got any.

Sunday Will Never Be the Same
Um. I’m not Italian, but a lot of Italians I know enjoy their Sunday dinner very early evening/late afternoon. Opening Montoni’s at five? Great business move. Instead of cutting back hours…how about letting some “staff” go? Here’s my list of everyone who works or has sought employment at Montoni’s:
- Les (weekends)
- Khan
- Cory (only on Valentine’s Day or after getting in trouble at school)
- Wally
- Maddie
- Crazy Harry (not an employee but drives Maddie on deliveries)
- Summer
- Keisha (only asked for a job so as not to be outdone by Sum’ Mo’)
- Rachel (longest-tenured Montoni’s employee)
- Nameless girl seen here with Rachel
- The two blondes with Rachel in the upper-right of this (pre-time-jump) picture
- Chef Carlo Mastriani: one of the characters featured on the website whom we have yet to see in the strip.
Let me know if I forgot anybody. And what’s with these two leering at each other in panel three? Per favore, hope they’re not gonna go at it right there on the counter…
Last of the Montoni’s
Mutt and Jeff Funky and Les return to a typically somber Westview Welcome. Now that these birds have returned to Ohio, isn’t it time for Tony to fly home as well? Bet he’ll be pleased to see what a good steward Funky has been to the business that bears his family name. At any rate, Tony’s sure to feel happy that at least Les was able to leverage this business trip to seal his book deal, right? Right?
If I Can't Make It There, Can't Make It Anywhere…
The sign on the door says it all: Out of Business. Funky and Les bid arrivederci to the New York store. But in a final “F you” to the landlord and to all New Yorkers, before locking up, the boys have left every faucet in the place wide open…note the water just beginning to seep out at the bottom of the window in panel 2. Take that, City of Broken Dreams!
The Declaration of Indifference
Well, look who came back to “help”. Where the @#$% have you been?
I’m on Funky’s side this time: I was gonna get on him for responding to Les’ “big news” with the usual dreary negativity. But he brought Les along on this trip for help and probably moral support, and off goes the Delicate Genius to take a meeting with his wacko “agent” while Funky is left, alone, to schlep more boxes. Les’ schmuckiness star continues to ascend.
